A petition or a Tweet poll is very far from direct democracy. I have spoken to a person in Switzerland, where direct democracy exists, and she told me that people vote stupid things, but then as they feel the consequences, they start to vote more responsibly. Of course you don't start it by something as serious as what is happening now.
